Besides the obvious that is by taking in a pre-workout and post-workout meal. Do you increase carbs AND protien on training days? Or just one or the other?
The difference for me is ... I get more calories on training days from protien and carbs. I add a pre and postworkout meal/shake. My type of carbs changes. For example on trianing days carbs are more grainy .. i.e., oats, fibre1, and mostly brown rice.
On non-training days, the grainy carbs are all substitutes for vibrous veggies, and black beans. I take in more fat on non-training days with protien only meals, like a shake of whey in water for example.
Is this not an ideal approach to take on training and non-training days? Do you guys keep your diets consistant across the board or change them for training and non-training days? If so what are you adjusting.
Cheers,
Mavy
